Answer:

c = (a/h) - b

Step-by-step explanation:

a = h(b + c) -- Divide both sides by h.

a/h = b + c -- Subtract b from both sides.

(a/h) - b = c

c = (a - hb)/h

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for c, we need to make c the subject of formula.

a=h(b+c)

expand the parenthesis:

a = hb + hc

subtract hb from both sides of the equation:

a - hb = hb -hb + hc

a - hb = hc

we divide both sides by h:

(a - hb)/h = hc/h

c = (a - hb)/h

OR

c = (a/h - hb/h)

c (a/h - b)
